Young Sherlock – Season 1
Young Sherlock continues the current TV trend of visiting classic TV characters during their younger years. This time we follow an adolescent Sherlock Holmes who hasn’t yet made a name for himself as a great detective.
The show’s mystery isn’t as clever or complex as one might expect for a Sherlock Holmes adaptation. But then again, young Sherlock himself is not as brilliant or quick witted as audiences know the character to be. While the show feels out of place in the Sherlock Holmes canon, it is undeniably full of fun and hijinks.

Vladimir
Based on the book of the same name, Netflix’s Vladimir follows a university professor who falls into lust with her much younger colleague. Rachel Weisz delivers a magnetic performance as the shows lead, bringing dimension to a character who is only known to audiences as “M”.
Provocative and pensive, nothing in the eight-episode mini-series is black and white. The series as unreliable as its unnamed main character, leaving audiences constantly guessing and constantly questioning everything they see on screen.
